25.       Which method can find if two vertices x & y have path between them?
(A) Depth First Search
(B) Breadth First Search
(C) Both (A) & (B)
(D) None (A) or (B)

26.       If we choose Prim's Algorithm for uniquely weighted spanning tree instead of Kruskal's Algorithm, then
(A) we will get a different spanning tree.
(B) we will get the same spanning tree.
(C) spanning will have less edges.
(D) spanning will not cover all vertices.
Answer: B
Explanation
Regardless of which algorithm is used, in a graph with unique weight, resulting spanning tree will be same.
